Eye-tracking Lab
Research Field
I am a cognitive neuroscientist (https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&tzom=-480&user=d6MDNjYAAAAJ&view_op=list_works) specializing in the coordination between eye movements, pupil dynamics, and brain function. My research utilizes eye movements, pupillometry, EEG/ERPs and autonomic signals (e.g., ECG and EDA) to investigate cognitive and emotional processes, including attention, working memory, reading, and perception. I also study how oculomotor behaviors are altered in psychiatric and neurological conditions, such as depression, anxiety, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. My work aims to elucidate the neural mechanisms underlying these changes, contributing to a deeper understanding of brain function in both health and disease.
Research of the lab focuses on the intricate interplay between eye movements and pupil size, emphasizing their coordination and underlying mechanisms. I also investigate altered oculomotor behaviors in psychiatric and neurological populations, including conditions such as depression, anxiety, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. This work aims to uncover how these changes reflect cognitive and neural processes, contributing to a deeper understanding of both typical and atypical brain function.
